Can virtual reality get you to pay for porn again?

Anna Lee has been in the adult entertainment business for about 18 years, working in everything from the webcam business to a fantasy role-play site. Her most ambitious project yet: virtual reality.
Beginning last year, Lee's company, Holo Films Productions of Vancouver, British Columbia, started using specialized cameras that can capture 360-degrees of action so viewers who strap on a pair of goggles and a screen to their face feel like they've actually stepped onto the set.
"It's the next progression of everything entertainment," says Lee, speaking in a convention hall crowded with other porn studios and sex toy companies at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas, where the AVN Expo is taking place. "And, of course, with porn, now you're with your favorite porn star, sitting in the room with her. She's looking at you, she's talking to you."
The website featuring Lee's initial 60 VR porn scenes, HoloGirlsVR.com, launched Tuesday and features actresses like Cherie DeVille, who are doing a lot more than talking.

Or what is the market share for the Xbox? Or what is the market share for PCs? Or what is the market share of our phones. "He completed Ndala "Going back to what we talked about on the movement of experience, and if we think more that these devices, which represent a graph strapped all as a contract, in some cases, will the user to use all these devices together, and sometimes only a single device or two will not be used of our devices as well as carrying out the use of other platforms, we do not mind it, but we want to make sure that we have the completion of experience in all of these devices. "He spoke Ndala "There is no doubt that we are suffering today from a reduction in own smartphones shares of us, but we are now with a HoloLens in the right way for the return of a lot of developers are the elite, and with turning your Xbox into a computer system and Windows, we're going to restore a large group of developers ".He added that Ndala Windows Phone phones are necessary to complete the comprehensive integration planned by the company, regardless of whether the experience if it is used by a few or many people.He pointed Ndala that developers elitist will flock to the phones the most popular mobile operating system, and by the completion of the company's experience in the integration of 10 Windows system with Hololens and xbox one, where this experience allow people to move from device to device with ease.Satya Nadella and possesses great strength points than his predecessor in office, but his attempt to convince users that Windows Phone failure does not matter will not be one of those points.Microsoft has allocated considerable resources for the platform their own smart phones, but did not achieve any success on the level of sales or market share level.
